Reason? Many believe the kiss was an act of sexual harassment. According to the Nurse Greta Friedman, who was 21 at the time of the kiss, the moment between the two was not consensual. She said the sailor just came out of nowhere to kiss her as a celebration for WWII's end.
She said the kiss was not a romantic one, but more of a celebratory one. She also revealed that the sailor was pretty strong and that he had held her very tight. For Mendonsa, it was just pure instinct. "I had a few drinks, and it was just plain instinct, I guess. I just grabbed her".
